1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Ankle fracture is one of the most commonly encountered fractures. Open reduction and internal fixation is the gold standard of treatment. However, minimally invasive fixation of ankle fracture is gaining popularity among foot and ankle surgeons as the result of recent advances in ankle arthroscopic techniques. Despite this, there are limited reports on endoscopic assessment of fibula fracture. In this Technical Note, we describe an endoscopic-assisted fibula reduction with full percutaneous fixation of ankle fracture dislocation. Patients with noncomminuted fibula fracture or poor soft-tissue condition may be more indicated for minimally invasive ankle fracture fixation. This technique can provide better visualization of fibula fracture during percutaneous fixation and may result in less soft-tissue trauma.
